i have wanted once since came out which is a long time ago lol, since i saw a review on it and in the tamiya catalogue bk then!
Yeah be nice if they updated it really!
Yeah not bad 240 certainly gone up some lately prices a few yr bk i saw it for a lot less! is theR620 new one you have? as thats like the big rigs we have over here!
I also need to think if i would use it much really as i think i mainly want it for the build and scale realism and would want the multi function set to so big money there!
eeek and now tamiya release the buggy champ for £280 doh what to get!

i have the R620 and R470 depends whether you want a 6x4 or 6x2, the R620 is a 6x4 and is the red one that i recently had delivered, they are very similar though apart from the extra axle, with the R470 going for a bit less.. check 'my models' section if you are unsure of what they look like.

Geez my racing Revo is a neverending project, I have it handling great, good power, but I keep upgrading it. By time I am done with it, the thing is going to be bulletproof ha ha. Such a fun monster truck.

That's the one. Pretty heartbreaking, especially for anyone who knew her. I have a couple photos of us together somewhere around here. I might've even scanned them a while back. I'll have to take a look.

. Ok, ending the sadness report 
. Well the AX10 should be shipping out of Berkley today or tomorrow so I should expect it sometime later on this week or the start of the next (depends wether or not the guys shipping are in any hurry haha). Auto, Iknow what it is like upgrading a car, with my 18T it was like that "bullet proof drive train, RPMstuff, more power, more....." Heck at least its a blast for when our friends come over and want to drive. Ishould set mine up with a slower power setup and alot of RPM stuff so they can learn to drive without destroying it (hahaha). As it is last night my sister's violin teacher dropped off dinner and their son was having a BLASTwith the 18T, now he really wants to get into RC(maybe we can race when he gets a little better). Auto, any photo's of this project or not

No photos, I race it every weekend so it's in pieces being upgraded or just plain muddy.
After all my work the thing handles better than my old Thunder Tiger truggy. Ilove the revo so much fun, and the aftermarket is endless. Best part is Igeared down the 3.3, put an aftermarket low end pipe, and the thing scoots along pretty good now.

i think it the non scale look thats puts me off, i love my 1/10 cars and 1/14 truck because they look real, most buggies look like spaceships!

RE: THE LOUNGE 3...
LOL.. yeah.. got a thread for the M-B1850L..
need.. to.. finish.. painting.. it...
It is otherwise finished (the mechanical bits) and you can drive it around, etc.
ORIGINAL: lee172
you want the rigid? jeez that is £££'s... i wouldnt mind paying that money if it was an up to date vehicle, but its pretty ancient and not long enough in my view.
you could have it for £240 (from abroad) or pay £300 from the UK... but bear in mind, for the same price, you could have a Scania R620, and you can also get a trailer for it, with the rigid your only option is making one yourself.. LB has the rigid, and there's a thread knocking about somewhere if your interested.. (though he aint finished it yet...!)
